The bathroom was completely unfinished. Shower stall did not have tile completed on floor. Mold around the bottom o shower stall. Wood holding sink not painted. Floor flooded when taking shower because shower curtain had not been placed & was a foot off floor. Causing possible danger of slipping!!! We went down to English Pub for a relaxing glass of wine. And due to a convention of loud noisy men drinking, my wife had men’s butts in her face & they were very rude! We understand hotels have to make money when they can, but they have to respect other guests also. The people they were very nice at the hotel so we did not make a scene. But it was not the experience we expected!

Beautiful hotel, clean and tidy and full of charm and history It’s in a nice quiet area, but close enough to lovey bars and restaurants However the only downside was somewhere to get breakfast in the morning. There is a Starbucks onsite and a small cafe around the corner There is valet parking or a car park opposite the hotel In all an excellent hotel

Gorgeous old building, just a beautiful hotel! Slight upkeep needed in the rooms (a threadbare patch of carpet, small spots of chipped vaneer, hole in sheet), but overall lovely. Front desk staff were super friendly. We plan to stay there again next time we’re in Chattanooga!

Everything about the stay was fabulous except for the valet situation. It was an absolute nightmare to get parked and get checked in. We had to circle the block 5 times before being able to get out of the car and get checked in. The valet attendants were great, but something needs to be figured out about this issue.
